Mu Xuanyi had eaten enough melons and said bluntly: "Master Feng, to be honest, I lived in the world when I was young. I haven't read many books. I am really thirsty for knowledge. If possible...can I have a look at your collection of books?
"
Hungry for knowledge?
Feng Yunxian looked at the little face with a fake smile in front of him, feeling a little surprised.
No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't put these four words on the little girl in front of him.
But he still nodded calmly: "Okay, I'll take you there."
Facing Lin Nianzhu's angry gaze, Mu Xuanyi followed Feng Yunxian to the library with brisk steps.
The library is an independent pavilion, surrounded by a large and quiet bamboo forest.
Mu Xuanyi looked at the books neatly stacked like a library, and couldn't help but admire in her heart what a clever little ghost she was.
"What type are you looking for? There are wooden signs here."
Mu Xuanyi nodded, walked directly to the category of strange people and strange things with a small dragon bag under his arm, sat cross-legged on the soft cushion, and started to rummage through the books one by one.
Although Xiao Long Bao was a big boy who couldn't read a basket of words, he still pretended to open a book without realizing that the book had been taken down.
Feng Yunxian glanced at the children, one large and one small, who seemed to be looking for something. With a slight smile on his lips, he began to prepare lessons for the prince.
But Mu Xuanyi's modern family has been running a martial arts school for generations. The whole family's learning talents are not enough to read so many obscure classical Chinese books.
"What text says...Zi Buyu...strange power..."
Not long after, Mu Xuanyi tilted her head among piles of books and dreamed of meeting Duke Zhou.
Xiaolongbao yawned loudly, crawled into Mu Xuanyi's arms, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep in a second.
When I woke up again, it was already dusk.
Mu Xuanyi sniffed, smelling the aroma of food that she had not smelled for a long time, and stood up like a carp.
"Is dinner ready?"
Xiao Longbao was thrown to the ground, and he got up rubbing his head in a daze: "Where is Fanfan!"
Their eyes met, and both "mother and son" became a little more awake.
"Damn! I told people that I am thirsty for knowledge! I actually fell asleep!"
Mu Xuanyi touched her face in embarrassment, and suddenly found a soft and thin blanket on her body.
She was startled, and her mood was a little strange.
I didn't expect that this master had no airs at all and was... quite considerate.
Xiao Long Bao obediently put the scattered books back on the shelf and muttered in a low voice: "You are still talking about helping Dong Dong find his mother, you are a big liar!"
Mu Xuanyi quickly packed up the books with a guilty conscience: "I'm...hungry! I'll definitely help you find it when I'm full!"
After cleaning up the mess, they got up and followed the scent to the lobby.
The butler had already laid out a table full of delicacies, and looked at Mu Xuanyi who came in with a smile.
No matter if you are raising a baby, if you get married and have children with adults in our family, you will have more experience, which will be beneficial to the future of children!
The housekeeper was making calculations in his heart, but his face was calm.
"Miss Mu, please come in. The Tutor's Mansion has not been so lively for a long time."
Mu Xuanyi, who was still shaking off her sleepiness, nodded subconsciously and answered: "Ah, has it been a long time since the young master smiled?"
The housekeeper glanced at her in confusion: "Our family is kind-hearted and we will never be sullen towards anyone."
Mu Xuanyi was stunned for a moment, and then a blush appeared on his face.
Damn! I’ve read too many Ba Boss novels!
She hurriedly said haha and sat down with the xiaolongbao dejectedly.
Seeing the sumptuous dishes that he had never seen before, Xiao Long Bao's little hands holding the chopsticks trembled with excitement.
Ouch! I can finally have a good time with the bad bitch!
She used her chopsticks awkwardly, trying to pick up the drumstick closest to her.
However, the next moment, the one she was interested in appeared in Lin Nianzhu's bowl.
Xiao Longbao watched helplessly as the delicious food flew away from his eyes, and he puffed up his face in grievance.
Lin Nianzhu snorted proudly, quickly ate the chicken legs, and stretched out her chopsticks the next time she tried to pick them up.
Snap!
A pair of chopsticks stretched out from the side and hit the back of her hand hard.
"ah!"
Lin Nianzhu was startled and glared at the calm Mu Xuanyi: "Hit me!"
Mu Xuanyi sneered coldly: "You are such an adult, are you ashamed to compete with a little kid for food?"
Lin Nianzhu was still about to argue when she heard a man's deep voice.
"Lin Nianzhu, if you don't want to have a good meal, I will ask my aunt to pick you up."
Lin Nianzhu stiffened and quickly lowered his head without saying anything.
Mu Xuanyi and her son had a good meal. The Xiao Long Bao was starving. If Mu Xuanyi hadn't snatched her small bowl away, she would have fried her belly.
After eating and drinking, she didn't want to look at Lin Nianzhu's face here, so she said hello to Feng Yunxian and went into the library again.
I patiently read through all the books that looked relevant, but I couldn't find any legends related to the race of hatchlings like dragon bao.
"Hmm... could it be that you are mutated?"
"That's not true!"
Xiao Longbao puffed up his face aggressively, "Dongdong is inherited by blood!"
Mu Xuanyi took the opportunity to pinch her little face in a bad way.
"Are you looking for something?"
The man's voice suddenly sounded, making Mu Xuanyi turn around suddenly in fright.
Why is this man walking without making any movement?
Feng Yunxian just smiled indifferently: "I have a limited collection of books here. If there is nothing that Miss Mu wants, how about going to my grandfather's house to attend the birthday banquet with me?"
After receiving Mu Xuanyi's confused look, Feng Yunxian calmly explained: "My grandfather was a literary master, and his collection of books at home is vast, which is much better than what I have here."
More than here!
Xiao Longbao suddenly became energetic and quickly shook Mu Xuanyi's arm.
Although Mu Xuanyi felt that being courteous without anything to do was either adultery or theft, but thinking that as a tutor, he would not deceive them into being "orphans and widowed mothers", so he agreed.
A dark light flashed in Feng Yunxian's eyes, and then he smiled warmly.
"Then I'll make arrangements."
The next day, early in the morning, the maids, who had been dragged out of bed to wash themselves, climbed into the carriage in a daze.
Feng Lao also served in the Imperial College before, and he was full of talents. In addition to the royal relatives, the rest were also high-ranking officials. For a time, the whole courtyard was filled with birthday gifts.
Even the current emperor sent his favorite prince to personally deliver congratulatory gifts.
A group of people were drinking and mingling among each other. In addition to congratulating the old man on his birthday, they naturally came with a more or less social attitude.
When the new Crown Prince Feng Yunxian walked in, he naturally attracted all the attention.
But in the next second, everyone's expressions were distorted for a moment.
"Isn't Mrs. Feng not yet married? Even if he brings a girl with him, how come he still has a child?"
"Maybe this woman's background is too low to be on the stage."
Listening to the whispers of the people around her, Mu Xuanyi couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth, and could only pretend that she didn't hear anything.
But Xiao Longbao raised his head in confusion and asked bluntly: "What is an illegitimate child?"
Mu Xuanyi coaxed: "It's a child secretly born in private. You see, you are the one your mother and I took out of the dark nest. You are not the one who jumped out in public, right?"
Xiao Longbao nodded in understanding.
It turns out that humans also have to look for nests to have babies!
The looks from everyone were getting sharper and sharper, and even Mu Xuanyi, who was so careless, couldn't stand it.
She looked at the gentle man next to her, becoming more and more suspicious.
I just helped him catch a thief, so there was no need to bring her out to show off at the birthday party!
Just as they were thinking about it, the two of them had already walked in front of Mr. Feng.
"Grandpa, I wish you long life and good health."
"well."
Mr. Feng accepted the birthday gift with a smile and glanced at Mu Xuanyi from the corner of his eye.
His grandson, could it be that the iron tree has blossomed?
As Feng Yunxian sat down, all the doubts he had just now were thrown away by Mu Xuanyi.
No matter what the reason is, we’ll talk about it after we’re full!
Mu Xuanyi's chopsticks were flying, overwhelming the crowd among the guests holding their shelves, and soon a small mountain of bones was piled up in front of them.
Although Xiao Longbao is not very good at holding chopsticks, she is still willing to give in. She even calls her mother several times to ask Mu Xuanyi to pick up the food for her.
All the guests stared at the big and small whirlwind in shock, but they did not dare to say anything.
Lin Nianzhu sneered and raised her voice deliberately: "You are really uneducated. I don't know which Goulan Yard he ran out of."
Mu Xuanyi didn't care, her peach blossom eyes narrowed into a crescent moon.
"Oh? So...Miss Lin knows this kind of place very well?"
Lin Nianzhu's face suddenly turned red: "What are you talking nonsense about? People like you really don't care about etiquette. If my cousin hadn't taken you in with a soft heart, how would you have had the chance to participate in the old man's birthday banquet!"
Mu Xuanyi put the peeled shrimps into her mouth and said in a clear voice: "Miss Lin's words are wrong. A birthday banquet is the essence of a birthday banquet. Only by eating well can you be worthy of the birthday boy!"
Lin Nianzhu paused, a flash of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
This sharp-toothed girl!
She secretly glanced at Feng Yunxian who was dining quietly, and when Mu Xuanyi stood up to pour tea, she pretended to be eating porridge, and her feet under the table were firmly tucked away from her ankles.
Mu Xuanyi knew that she would definitely play dirty, so he twisted his slender waist to avoid her outstretched foot, and supported her forearm as if borrowing strength.
Lin Nianzhu felt her forearm go numb, she raised her hand uncontrollably, and a whole bowl of hot porridge was thrown into her face.
"ah--"
Mu Xuanyi shook his head seriously.
"It's noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat drips from the soil. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard work. Even if Miss Lin is unhappy, don't waste food."
Seeing her solemn expression, Lin Nianzhu was a little frightened for a moment.
The literati on the side even praised her poems: "What a poem! It is concise, concise and catchy! This lady can actually write poems out of her mouth!"
Mu Xuanyi waved her hand: "Easy to say, easy to say."
Lin Nianzhu bit her lip, but could only snort and ignore her.
Feng Yunxian handed over a cup of tea with a calm expression and whispered: "After the birthday banquet, I will ask my grandfather to take you to see the book collection."
Mu Xuanyi swallowed a shrimp and then thought of the purpose of his trip.
She quickly swallowed the food in her mouth and was about to thank her when a mocking voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
"You unruly thing, you are obviously engaged and still hanging out with other men!"
